The quaint and historic 100-year-old administration building at my alma mater is being torn down this summer. I'll be visiting it in a week and want to shoot some footage for a possible short doc. (or at least just to have some archival footage).

I plan to shoot SEVERAL rolls (due to this 'jittery cart' business - scary stuff!) of the exterior using K40 and Plus X.

I figured I'd shoot some Tri-X indoors. But I'd also like to try shooting some color indoors. It's a dark old building - I believe there's a combination of older tungsten light as well as some florescent - and I have no extra lighting available (I own no lights and won't have time to get any by then - I live in a small town with no camera store, and the school is also in a small town).

Would it be worth trying Ektachrome (without extra lighting)? I'm not all that concerned about grain or color - just want to have something/anything.

And/or, what about Vision 200? I've never used negative film before. (I don't currently have computer/digital/NLE capability - but, in the future, who knows? - and I am more interested in just having the footage in the can, available for future use, than anything else.)

And, can Vision be used outdoors? Or is it too sensitive? Should I shoot some along with the K40? Will shooting Neg. film (Vision) give me any advantages, now or later?

I played around in S8 twenty years ago, but have forgotten everything. I want to start getting back into it now, and just received a (new to me) Nizo 801 Macro.

Any helpful advice or suggestions to a relative newbie - on any of the above questions, or on anything else you think I might be overlooking - would be greatly appreciated!
